Homes use more electricity for lighting than any other source. Every step to lower your lighting use, from installing energy efficient lighting to operating lights only where and when you need them, can significantly lower your energy bills and earn substantial rebates. LED stands for Light Emitting Diode and they have revolutionized the lighting industry. LED lights have different spectrums of light from yellow to a very bright white/blue. The light temperature is measured in Kelvin(k) and the proper residential soft light is 2700k.

Looking for a spray foam insulation company in Denver? Have you been living in the same home for a long time now? Are you looking to upgrade the quality of your insulation and decrease your energy bills? Older types of insulation in homes around Colorado deteriorate and cause problems for homeowners over time. Spray foam insulation can achieve a perfect fit every time eliminating voids and gaps between other building elements reducing air infiltration thus reducing energy loss. It doesn't sag, settle or deteriorate like other conventional insulations.

A home's attic is usually a dark, dirty, and somewhat forgotten space. But the truth is, a home's attic is one of the more important spaces for keeping a home "comfortable, " and they are almost always under insulated. At REenergizeCO, we can help you understand how a properly insulated attic regulates the temperature in your home year-round. Start benefiting from proper attic insulation today! There are many effects that an under-insulated attic can have on your home. Air leaks throughout your attic can cause your house to be much colder than you want in the winter, and much hotter than you want in the summer.

A well-conditioned, properly sealed crawl space will increase comfort, save energy, preserve your home's foundation, and reduce the risk of moisture and other potential irritants from entering your home. Crawl spaces are dark and damp spaces that many homeowners tend to forget. Because they are below the ground, crawl spaces contain many unwanted elements that can become hazardous when proper maintenance and care are neglected. A problem that is especially common in older Colorado homes is that of moisture penetration.

Even if you only use your basement for storage purposes and heating and cooling equipment, your basement is thermally connected to rest of your home. This means that energy and conditioned air that escapes your basement will consequently escape your entire home. Yes, this could be an alternative route you take. Keep in mind that if your home's pipes, ducts, and HVAC system are located in your basement, then you would need to insulate them to prevent them from freezing. If your basement utilizes a number of south-facing windows, exterior insulation could prove to be beneficial if enough sunlight reaches the basement on a daily basis.

Window manufacturers and window companies have done a great job telling you that you need new windows. Installing new, energy-efficient windows can reduce your costs associated with heating and cooling your home throughout all of the seasons we encounter in Colorado. In colder times of the year, windows that are not energy efficient can be a source of unwanted heat loss, discomfort, and condensation. However, in recent years, windows have transformed and have garnered new technologies that enable a home to have lower heat loss, less leaking air, and warmer window surfaces.

REenergizeCO is an energy efficiency company located in Colorado that offers professional solar power solutions for residential and commercial applications. Adding solar panels to your home or building can drastically reduce your carbon footprint. In fact, installing solar panels can reduce a carbon footprint by over 35,000 pounds of carbon dioxide per year! To get that much carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere a homeowner would have to plant 88 trees every single year. Additionally, the average home saves about $84 per month on their electric bill by using solar energy to help power anything that runs on electricity.

Insulation is an important contributing factor to the overall comfort of your home. In Colorado, we are lucky enough to be able to enjoy all four seasons to their fullest. In the winter, we experience snow and cold temperatures, and in the summer we experience days where temperatures can reach triple digits. With such wide variations in temperature throughout the year, it is imperative that the insulation in your home is up to par to ensure comfortable temperatures year round. Many people fail to realize that insulation is just as important in the summer as it is in the winter.
